Nice build, now I'm looking into this intake for my build, which is 434 with similarly ported 821 heads.

No problem...try finding a 8 inch converter for the 4l80e.. finding A1 was a chore. Most will do just a 245mm or 9 ½

Dealt with them on the 1st single disc stall ( same city, 10min away). Called just to ask about a 8in and got a story, & not knowing i've dealt with them before. I need no lecture just do what i'm asking or paying 4. They said a 8in 6000 - 6200 stall, not we can work with a 245mm stall & it cost x amount to do a 8in. If you can't do what i'm asking, i 'll find someone who will no biggie, a lot of racers & NHRA guys say he's (A1) 1 of the best on YB. Cost is about 300 more than morel bushed lifters for ref.

I am going to start with the mid runner fast and swap to the L.O.D. intake on the dyno for comparison. Car has electric water pump, crank scraper, tri y headers 2 x 2 1/4 x 3, 3" x pipe, flex fuel, 25% ATI pulley, no belt tensioners, 102tb, rps twin carbon/aluminum flywheel, fly cut pistons .120 and 4.10 gears. My car made 453SAE with the bolt ons and 1.85 rockers and went a best of 10.58@131. I had to swap clutches and last time I ran made 3 passes and went 10.8@128 on 93 with a splash of 110. Just curious what you guys think its capabilities will be.
Johnson Lifters, 2110? What Pushrod Length with your set up please?

I have 2126s and my push rods varied in length. It is wise to check your lengths and not go off of what worked for someone else. Cam base circles can change depending on lift etc.
